WG -

I appreciate your analysis on this. Thanks for the videos. It was the same exact formation except Fields gives it away. He also had open guys if he had just looked.

This supports my feelings on Fields that I have kept mostly quiet about, I don't think we missed on Fields at all. I think we are going to be just fine going forward at QB. He is going to ride the bench at tOSU and be relegated to mop up duty etc. behind Tate Martell.

Only mistake CKS/CJC made on this was bringing Fields in. The play could have been there. Sneaky as hell for CKS to remember it and have it ready, just didn't select the right personnel to run it.

Which leads to my other point. Everybody touting Fields as being All World did not see an ounce of meaningful practice from which decisions like who will start are made. CKS did. Every single minute. He knew who the better choice was at QB. But I feel he played to Fields and his family wanting PT and it blew up on him. He should have given him absolutely no PT imho.

CKS will not make this mistake twice. No 19 year old kid should be able to hold an entire program hostage. I'm glad to see him go.

Once again thanks for the breakdown.

Th 2012 play, the receiver ran a seam route. This fake had a 3 man crossing route on the right and an option thing happening to the left. They also left the DE on the right side unblocked, which makes no sense if the action is faking left and going back to the right.

I am pretty much in agreement with everything else you said, but this is just wrong. You seriously believe that Tate Martell can keep Fields on the bench? Martell is no Fromm. Not gonna happen.
